Hi everybody
After many years in CDS, it is time for me to leave. Second Life doesn't meet my expectations in the current projects I am developing in my real life. I have today other interests that are not really transferable in a virtual world or that are much more connected to the real word: in the coming years I want develop my activities as storyteller. I am already a storyteller, but I want to take more time to find, write, perform stories. Unfortunately I cannot tell stories in english. For this reason I cannot use Second Life.
I have an other reason. To be frank I did not develop the skills to transform and to adapt my two projects in CDS: the Monastery and the Roman Villa in Colonia Nova. The surrounding evolve, but not my buildings. I have neither the time nor the skill to improve them. Better to let the talented community of CDS create nice buildings on these places.
These last years I was less and less active in the community. The only one activity is the Advent Calendar of the Monastery. But maintaining the whole building for 24 days in a year doesn't make sense.
I am not saying good bye right now. I intend to leave this summer. August seems a good time. I want to let the time to the authorities of CDS to think about how they can use my two places. I think that the case of my two parcels of Colonia is easy to solve. The Monastery could be bring more discussions. I don't want to take any influence in the debates of the LUC or the RA about what to do with the Monastery. It is to the CDS to decide. Until August I will think about getting or not a small parcel somewhere in CDS to stay citizen. For this reason, I am not yet resigning from Scientific Council.
There will certainly be an opportunity to say good bye to all of you this summer and to say how great was my experience in CDS. Before abandoning my parcels, I will take some pics and videos.
Notice that I took some time to make this decision.
Kind regards
